Ivor,

Glad you agree. My suggestion is to prepare a document with a title: Manifesto for The Reformation Of Classical Electromagnetic Theory. The definition of manifesto is a plan outlining aims and policies to be applied to solve a problem. This manifesto aims to give a list of the reforms required to put EM theory on a correct course for future scientific progress. I suggest that a list of the needed reforms be presented rather than a list of your theoretical ideas. That would remove the claims from being aimed at personal glorification as might be suggested by making the claims as appearing to be personal discoveries. The most important part is the justification of why a reformation of classical EM is necessary. That may be the most difficult part. But the objective here is to develop a list of reasons reform is needed with experimental evidence in support justifying the reforms. The first step is to make a list of those needed reforms. Then add a discussion of the items on the list. You should be able to make up such a list and send it out for comments and additional items. I am sure Svetlana will be more than happy to publish since it will create controversy and get publicity.

“That would remove the claims from being aimed at personal glorification as might be suggested by making the claims as appearing to be personal discoveries.” We have to get Catt clearly out of the driver’s seat.

Dear Harry,

I am hoping to start again, and say it went wrong right at the start, with the wrong interpretation of Faraday’s famous experiment. Note that none of my work ever mentions the permanent magnet, which does not appear in my speciality, digital electronics. There are no permanent magnets in computers. http://www.ivorcatt.co.uk/manifesto1.htm

Dear Ivor,
I could not possibly improve on this most recent message of yours as an illustration of the justice of my description "absurd ego trip" to describe your activity!
